Motivation:



The (principal) value of



$$mpmodn$$



for some positive integers $m> n$, might well be viewed as the value



$$m-sum_i=1^M_m,nn,tag$Sigma$$$



for some $M_m,nin Bbb N$ with $M_m,nnle m$ but $(M_m,n+1)n> m$; indeed, we have just subtracted a suitable number $M_m,n$, dependent of $n$ and $m$, of $n$s from $m$.



The Questions:




What happens if we replaced our fixed $n$ by a sequence $(a_n)in Bbb N^Bbb N$, so that, for instance, for small $m$, where the threshold $M_m, (a_n)$ is also low, one substacts only a handful of terms? Has such a thing been studied before and, if so, what is its name? What properties does it have?




Example:



Consider the natural numbers $(n_n)inBbb N^Bbb N$ (of which $0$ is not a member). Then, say,



$$beginalign
7pmod(n_n)&=7-sum_n=1^M_7, (n_n)n \
&=7-fracM_7, (n_n)2(M_7, (n_n)+1)\
&=1,
endalign$$



since $M_7, (n_n)=3$ here.




I like how a sequence $(M_m, (a_n))_min(Bbb Ncup0)^Bbb N$ is generated.



Please help :)
